The Most Expensive UNION ARENA Cards Right Now

Curious about what the most expensive UNION ARENA cards of them all are?

In this list, we’ll be looking at the best of the best UNION ARENA chase cards fetching the most value on the secondary card market.

Top Serialized cards

Before getting into the top 10 SR*** cards, we have to acknowledge the real chase cards in the room: the serialized cards. While some sets have serialized, limited print run for SR*** cards, others do not. Regardless, they remain the most valuable UNION ARENA cards overall.

Solo Leveling Serialized AP cards are the most expensive UNION ARENA cards overall

We gave to highlight these two APs before looking at the rest of the most expensive UNION ARENA cards. Solo Leveling is a juggernaut of a set – it works for both competitive players with powerful decks as well as being the current top choice for collectors and investors. With massive price tags like that, it’s going to be tough for a set to compete. However, stay tuned: upcoming sets like Chainsaw Man could topple it in terms of overall market value.

UNION ARENA Promos

In addition to cards you can get in packs, several UNION ARENA promo cards are popping up on the secondary card market with some pretty impressive value. Specifically, two UNION ARENA Championship 2026-2027 promos are doing very well on the secondary card market.

The 10 Most Expensive SR*** cards

#1 Sung Jinwoo – SR***

Solo Leveling was a huge set when it came out. Right now, Sung Jinwoo SR*** is the most expensive of all the SR*** cards. Demand remains incredibly high for Solo Leveling – a fact which caused a reprint run for the Solo Leveling set. While second edition booster boxes won’t have the serialized Action Point cards which helped drive so much hype for UNION ARENA’s biggest set to date, they do include the SR***. Yet as you can see, the reprint run hasn’t done much to hurt this card’s price, making it the ultimate chase card for the UNION ARENA English Version.

#2 Chihiro Rokuhira SR***

UNION ARENA’s first Manga-based set, Kagurabachi has a massive following despite the manga not even being an anime yet. It’s worth almost twice the second most valuable card on the list, and the first time arguably since Sword Art Online came out that a UNION ARENA card was able to dethrone Asuna as most expensive overall at the time.

#3 Tanjiro – SR***

I have a special attachment to this particular SR*** because it’s not only the only SR*** card I’ve pulled from UNION ARENA so far – I also pulled the serialized version of the card. This Tanjiro is a fantastic card that remains super relevant given the incredible hype that Demon Slayer continues to enjoy as a franchise. As far as UNION ARENA cards go, it’s up there as one of the cards with the brightest feature on the secondary card market.

Its recent upward trajectory might have a little to do with the incredible Demon Slayer Vol. 2 set having just dropped at the end of 2025. Certainly it brought Tanjiro back into the minds of UNION ARENA fans, helping propel a positive market trajectory.

#4 Asuna SR*** (SAO Vol. 2)

Asuna SAO Vol. 2 SR*** — Market price: $1007

Buy on TCGPlayer

I am very, very pleased to include the Asuna SR*** in second place on this list. Worth an incredible $900 on the secondary card market, this card – my favorite of all UNION ARENA cards – just shows how massively popular and relevant Sword Art Online remains over a decade since the anime first came out.

#5 Cha Hae-in SR***

Cha’s SR*** may only be worth half that of Solo Leveling’s iconic hero, but she’s still valuable enough to earn her place at the top of the UNION ARENA card value list. Her’s is a gorgeous card with a much lighter tone and color scheme than the far darker Sung Jinwoo SR***.

#6 Sung Jinwoo SR**

While most of the cards in this list of top 10 UNION ARENA cards outside of promos and serialized are SR***, one SR** punches above its weight to end up in a top spot. Perhaps to no one’s surprise, that card is the SR** Sung Jinwoo.

Remember: SR** are just one per case. And with many different SR** cards out there, it makes chasing this particular gorgeous alt art for the popular Shadow Army deck relatively tough but not outlandishly difficult in comparison to an SR*** that is just one in three-or-more cases.

#7 Taro Sakamoto – SR***

Newcomer Tar Sakamoto – just joining the game in May, 2026 – lands a top spot on the list of top UNION ARENA chase cards. A powerful card, a hit anime – what’s not to love about this card? And that insane market value isn’t just hype: landing that high that early marks some serious staying power for the latest and greatest set.

#8 Rukia SR***

Rukia was – when it released – and remains my favorite alternate art SR*** card in UNION ARENA. To me, it is the most beautiful and captures the beauty and appeal that originally captured my imagination when reading the BLEACH manga as a youth so perfectly. Apparently I’m not the only person who has noticed this above-and-beyond artwork featuring Rukia’s greatest moment from the show, as she comfortably sits at the top of the heap of most expensive UNION ARENA cards.

#9 Asuna SR***

For a long time, the Asuna SR*** from Sword Art Online’s original UNION ARENA set was the defining UNION ARENA chase. Clad in her iconic Knights of the Blood Oath uniform, this Asuna encapsulates so much of the energy that made the original Aincrad arc so massively popular when it came out all those years ago.

Today, Asuna’s legacy is honored in this timeless card – a worthy addition to any Asuna-themed collection, and still very near to the top of most expensive UNION ARENA cards of them all.

#10 Nezuko Kamado SR***

I’m not at all surprised to see this gorgeous Nezuko SR*** end up very near the top of this list. For starters, look at that artwork, the colors, and the floral patterns in the background. Here is one of anime’s most recognizable and indeed iconic characters – part of an anime so popular that it was able to launch a movie into the top five most successful films of 2025.

Demon Slayer is a once-in-a-generation kind of anime, and Nezuko bears the weight of that burden splendidly to a more than impressive market value.
